1963: Head of State Datu Mustapha bin Datu Harun unveiled the Malaysia monument (pic) built by the Chinese community to mark the birth of Malaysia.
It cost $11,000 and is situated in front of the Keng Chew Association in Charter Street, Jesselton.
When Malaysia was around the corner, the sponsoring associations began planning a suitable way to mark its birth. Several proposals were considered, among them temporary arches to scholarship foundations.
When the proposal to erect a permanent monument was agreed upon, it was just 20 days before Malaysia Day (Sept 16). But it was completed on time and the lights were turned on the first evening of the Malaysia celebrations.
